We study the rheological behavior of concentrated suspensions of non-Brownian particles: cornstarch or mono-disperse spherical polystyrene beads. The latter model system is used to be able to control the physical properties of the suspension. We focus on two phenomena encountered in particle pastes: the yield stress and the shear thickening behavior.In a first series of experiments we studied the origin of the yield stress. From classical rheology and local MRI velocimetry and density measurements we show that the origin of the yield stress for the model system of spherical beads is sedimentation, which we observe by introducing different contrasts in density between particles and fluid. The difference in density leads to a close packing of...
